Chesterfield Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Ill try and get my pics uploaded some time tomorrow. We had a good chat with Tim Marshall (driver of the Sumo Power Z) inthe pits on Saturday. Yes, I do have a close up of the broken driveshaft. It sheared! Thats an inch thick carbon steel shaft sheared off! But. and it is a big BUT. The car is pushing 700Nm of torque. Enough to give any driveshaft something to think about.

steve_b Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Will, sorry to have missed you we must have been watching the drifting (left sometime before 2) As you say there will be plenty other meets, even Rockingham. Steve I stopped by your little nook twice in the day, once before 2pm and then sometime before i left at around 4pm, but there was no on there, just 4 or 5 lonesome zed's!

steve_jones Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Had a good day on Saturday (biying that programme was a genius plan !! ) Good to see the drifting and the madd jet Quad bike !! I though the pink zed broke a half shaft, not the main drive shaft, it looked very metal like to me ! All good fun !! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 yes it was a half shaft, not the main drive, but looking at it, it still looked to be carbon steel (much stronger than plain old steel). Ill get the piccys up later, when I unpack the car! LOL. too tired last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 What a brilliant weekend!!! Thanks to Val for making me feel welcome with the Z gang and hopefully I will be able to bring my own Z along to show with you all soon!! Val, I hope you had a good night on Saturday, we're not normally all that mad but as it was the first main show of the year, I think a lot of people got carried away a bit!! All good fun though!! You'll have to come out with us again at the next weekend show! I have to say, all the Z's were looking fantastic and all the people I was with commented on how good they looked as well.
